Summary/Abstract |
Chiefly a folded scroll painting reproduced with a ballad on the tsunami that hit India in 2004. Rendered in the Patua art style from West Bengal by Moyna and Joydeb Chitrakar, Tsunami recalls a terrifying event in our common history. This innovative scroll-book transforms dramatic news into a moving and artfully rendered fable. A ballad of loss and of hope, prophecy and wisdom, Tsunami seeks to heal hurt with song and art, calling attention to the persistence of life in death.
